A full standard pedicure takes 45 to 60 minutes. Add 15 minutes if you want gel polish or callus removal with an electric file. Express services last 20 to 30 minutes and skip the foot bath and massage. Confirm the duration when you book to plan your visit and avoid rushing the technician.
If you have diabetes, circulation issues, fungal nails, or thick calluses, request a medical or podiatric pedicure. The specialist uses sterilized instruments, checks for infections, and avoids sharp blades on diabetic feet. Sessions take 60 to 75 minutes and cost more, but reduce the risk of wounds, ingrown nails, and cross-contamination.
Avoid products containing formaldehyde, toluene, dibutyl phthalate or methyl methacrylate. These ingredients appear in some low-cost polishes and acrylic nail systems. Ask the salon for a list of polishes they stock. Most reputable brands publish their ingredient lists online or on the bottle label for you to review.
Most clients book every 4 to 6 weeks to maintain shape and callus control. People with fast-growing nails or heavy callus buildup may need visits every 3 weeks. If you wear open shoes daily or run often, expect shorter intervals. Waiting more than 8 weeks usually requires extra work and longer sessions to restore the feet.
A standard pedicure takes 40 to 60 minutes. It includes soaking the feet in warm water, trimming and shaping the nails, pushing back the cuticles, removing calluses with a pumice stone or foot file, and finishing with a polish of your choice. Ask what products are used and whether tools are sterilized in an autoclave between clients.
Tool sterilisers should reach 121 degrees Celsius for at least 15 minutes in an autoclave, or 170 degrees Celsius in a dry heat unit. UV boxes and chemical soaks do not meet professional standards. Ask the salon which method they use. Tools should come out of sealed pouches in front of you.
Ingrown nails appear within 1 to 3 weeks when corners are cut too short or rounded. Fungal infections show as yellow, thick nails 2 to 8 weeks later, often from unsterilized tools. Cuticle damage causes redness and small infections. If pain, swelling, or pus appears, contact a podiatrist and avoid home removal of any skin growth.
Keep feet dry for 24 hours after a pedicure to let the polish cure fully. Warning signs include redness, swelling, pain around the nail fold, pus or greenish discoloration on the nail plate. These symptoms may signal an infection that needs a doctor within 48 hours. Report problems to the salon and seek medical advice.
Ask how the foot bath is disinfected, what autoclave cycle is used, and whether files and buffers are disposable. Ask the technician's training and years of practice. Confirm the exact duration, the polish brand, and whether gel removal costs extra. A clear answer to each question is the strongest sign of a serious, clean service.
A fresh coat of regular polish usually lasts 5 to 7 days before chipping. Gel polish, cured under UV or LED light, can last 14 to 21 days without visible wear. The shape of the nail and the thickness of the application affect durability, so ask how many coats are included and which base and top coat brands are used.
